In reply dvbrothers post and not wanting to invade a thread,dvbrother said [ the fact that you are seeing M & A on your LCD is irrelevant, as I see that all the time on my GH2's LCD but it never appears when viewing the footage on a full HD resolution monitor or TV.
I think what we are suggesting, is that there's something in the way the GH2 outputs progressive footage IN AN INTERLACED STREAM that may cause M & A when viewing on your TV (possibly it goes to half resolution when recording?). And a SEPARATE BUT RELATED issue is improper processing by your editing program (or something). The HBR of the GH2 notoriously records a progressive image embedded in an interlaced wrapper. But, unlike the camcorders you suggest, the HBR metadata is goofy and confuses editing programs as to how to display it. This is the crux of the problem, but it can be solved, at least in terms of fixing your final output.]
As i have said editing and processing does not come into my M & A problems,my camera has a clean picture until recording starts then any M & A is clearly visible in the viewfinder and lcd,also when the footage is played direct from camera to tv via hdmi,24 and 25P show the problems worst,footage taken with a good tripod is fairly good.
What i have to decide is whether to sell my camera for what would be a poor price or keep it for stills and the odd videoing,i have an FZ150 and still are not my thing as a rule.Is 24P in an interlaced wrapper like 25/30P,
